"My son, don't you worry about their father and son running away with the money?"
Seeing Wang and his son leaving the Metropolitan Governor’s Mansion, Wu Sui asked with a little doubt, a sling of money is a huge sum of money in ordinary people’s homes. With this sling, you can not only marry Wang Er's wife, but even buy more than ten acres of land and land. The mansions are more than enough, and usually they want to take the money and leave.
"Don't worry, their father and son won't!"
Li Kuan concluded that their father and son would not flee privately with the money, but Wang's father and son had been with himself and knew them better. As for whether the sons of Wang's father and son had such loyalty, Li Kuan could not guarantee. Now he doesn’t think about this issue. As for the evidence that the father and son set up, Li Kuan also keeps it. In the future, if there is any infidelity between the sons and fathers of the Wang family, they can use the evidence to take them back to the oil mill, or even put them to death. .
"Why?" Wu Shuo asked again, and Li Kuan replied with a smile: "Because I am the king of Chu and the people do not fight against officials, their father and son will do their best when they take the money. They will never run away with the money. When I found out that they broke their promise, what would you say would be the result?"
Wu Hui suddenly understood that, in fact, it was true. Li Kuan was not only the chief governor of Jingzhou, but also the king of Chu and the royal clan. Even if they were lent some courage to them, they would not dare to flee privately with the money. If they were found, they would be executed immediately, and their relatives might even be demoted to slaves.
Li Kuan supported Wang's father and son to open an oil mill, and naturally helped. He left a part of the rapeseed that he had bought as seeds. When the old man Wang found a suitable store, he transported it all, including the oil press equipment he had made before. .
For half a month, the Wang family and his son came to the Metropolitan Governor’s Mansion happily. Apart from eating and sleeping, the father and son spent all their time looking for a suitable location for oil extraction. There is indeed such a house deep in the streets and lanes north of Jiangling City. Under the inquiries of their father and son, they realized that they were not renting but selling, so they came to ask Li Kuan for advice.
Li Kuan directly let them decide on their own. The money has been given to them, father and son, without interfering in how to use it and how to use it. All they need to do is to set up an oil mill to ensure the amount of oil to be squeezed every day. In addition, Li Kuan also urged them not to come to the general governor for non-important matters. The implication was to let them do it, and to remind them not to be blatant when they came again.
After leaving the house, the Wangs and his sons carefully left. The next day they found the landlord to sign the land deed and directly used 300 yuan. Then, Li Kuan ordered people to secretly deliver all the supplies to the house, and the sign of "Piaoxiang Oil Workshop" was also hung up on the third day.
Regarding the newly opened oil mill, the people in Jiangling City would not even take a look at it. The wealthy businessmen and others also ignored it, because they did not have any reputation and could not believe whether the newly opened oil mill was selling well or not. The initial business of opening the store was very good. dismal.
Wang's father and son jumped anxiously. Li Kuan guessed that they would be anxious, and specially sent someone to secretly ask them not to worry about it. In the near future, there will be guests coming to the house, so they can only squeeze the oil with peace of mind.
The Wangs and his sons obediently followed suit. They hired to squeeze oil together every day. They had no business but paid their wages. These hired people naturally worked hard. Father and son Wang have been in this business for many years, and they know a lot of guys, so the old man Wang wants to invite some people who can't stand the anger of the original employer to come to his shop to do work.
Li Kuan was not worried about the bleak business faced after the opening of the oil mill. Instead, he asked the people in the Fuzhong to go to the major taverns to inquire about the news, mainly about the taste of the dishes and what kind of special dishes they have, the most important point. It is whether to put oil and how to drink.
The male servants in the entire capitol's mansion were all sent out, and even the old servants who managed the vegetable garden were sent out. For the past half month, I have tasted all the pubs and pubs in Gangneung City, and even the famous pubs in several other states.
Li Kuan learned from them that, except for a small number of very expensive signature dishes, most of these pubs do not put oil, and the liquor in their pubs is all turbid wine, the concentration is not very high, even the price of the wine is high. It's clear to the touch.
After the situation was basically understood, Li Kuan set out to make wine by himself. It was not the turbid sake, sake, and rice wine that the Tang Dynasty drank, but the modern white wine, which is the high-concentration grain wine achieved through distillation technology. The Tang Dynasty has the highest concentration. That is 30-40 degrees shochu. New 81 Chinese network update the fastest computer terminal: https://
If Li Kuan wants to increase the alcohol concentration, he must use shochu as a raw material. For example, rice wine cannot be refined with high concentration. In order to refine high-concentration liquor, Li Kuan had to spend money again to buy glassware, and buy various concentrations of shochu from various pubs, and then prepare raw materials such as barley, wheat, and rice. The only trouble was that the barrels could not be sold. , Can only be produced by communicating with a skilled master.
The retort barrel is a commonly used brewing device. This device is indispensable in the traditional brewing process. It is also a device needed to extract higher-concentration liquor. It is composed of three parts: the barrel body, the retort cover and the bottom pot. The sieve plate support is placed on the sieve plate, and the steam holes needed for the steam are divided around the bottom pot.
Since there is no connectable tube, we have to temporarily replace it with a glass container. After the selected high-quality raw materials are steamed and dried to gelatinize, they are cultured and then fermented, and they must be mixed with cooked bran during fermentation. The shell is evenly mixed.
During the cooking process, the cooked bran has to be stirred to increase its air permeability, that is, the first cooking, followed by braising and cooling, followed by the last step of distillation, which is also the second steaming. At this time, the retort bucket is really in handy.
In order to distill the flame temperature well, Li Kuan was not allowed to learn from the principle of the blacksmith bellows. After repeated failures, he used glass containers and bamboo poles to pick up the wine. The taste and concentration were different. Li Kuan even used shochu for distillation, and finally there was no wine. Fragrant, after repeated failures and repeated contrast concentrations, I finally got the height wine I wanted, roughly around 45 degrees, far from the modern 50 or 60 degrees. ァ新ヤ~⑧~1~中文网ωωω.χ~⒏~1zщ.còм
Li Kuan summed up the lessons from the failure and sought a breakthrough from a little accumulation. Time is in a hurry, and the wine has been tested successfully, and the mass production plan can be implemented. In order to achieve my goal, I used the same method to distill fruit wine. The concentration is not as high as that of grain wine, but it is much higher than the concentration I drink now.
Due to the limitations of the current technology, increasing the alcohol level by five degrees on the basis of shochu is already a huge surprise for Li Kuan. When he has plenty of time, he must find a way to increase the alcohol level to the 50% he is currently drinking. Degree above. (End of this chapter)
